how to tweak my laptop so that the wireless access does not get disabled after a short period (approx 15 min) of inactivity. It's really annoying to have to reconnect every time this happens.
Using an Atheros AR9285 wireless card in an Asustek N61Jv laptop.
My laptop does not recognize wireless OR the LAN anymore. IT says "Unidentified Network" My laptop connects to the network but the network doesn't connect to the internet. Before I got it and added a password it worked fine! Except it said Limited Connectivity" Here are the system settings for my laptop (I don't think wifi works for my PC either):
Manufacturer: TOSHIBA
Model: Satellite A215
Windows Vista

Processor: AMD Turion (tm) 64 x2 Mobile Technology TL-52 1,60 GHz

I hadn't used this device (version 1) for a couple of years. After that much time and many changes in my home network, once again I need it to connect a printer. I pushed the reset button and followed the initial setup directions. So far so good.
Then I followed directions for using it on my network. Also good. I can access the bridge's web server and I can send jobs to the printer.
My problem is, after a period of inactivity (say, over night) I can no longer access the printer or the bridge. The only way I have found to get them back is to power-cycle the bridge. Some data ...
My router is a WRT320N. It manages DHCP and reserves a fixed IP address for the bridge.The bridge connects to a wireless network managed by an Apple Airport Extreme 802.11. It is connected directly to the router. Yes, I have two WiFi networks. No, I have not yet tried the bridge on the router's network.The LEDs on the bridge are the same, accessible or not.The printer is an OKI c3400n.
I have read numerous postings on this and ather sites about the Atheros AR9285 not being able to see wireless networks - and guess what I have the same problem!My laptop is an HP CQ61-312SA upgraded to 4GB of ram, and running Windows 7 Home Premium, I have tried everything I can find on this and other forum sites with no luck at all, including updating drivers, making sure Wlan is started etc and I have downloaded programs like Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector and Insider = both of which show absolutely nothing.I have one other problem that might indicate a software problem - on the odd occasion when my computer does try to connect to a wireless network it resets to a blue scree which states that it is doing a 'physical memorey dump' and then restarts.My Atheros card has worked perfectly for 2 years, but I managed to purchase another it case it was faulty - with the same results. I also upgraded the memory in case of a memory fault.Rolling back drivers and using system restore does not work and ipconfig/all gives identical readouts to others with this problem.

I have a strange problem here after using internet for sometime..I will not be able to use internet unless I shut down and restart both Innomedia and D-link.I tried changing configurations in D-link but with no luck. I lost the connection no matter I am using wireless or wired mode.I do not know how to login to InnoMedia MTA6328-1Be2S as well.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi have 2 1260 Access points one is in root mode , one is wgb mode. Authentication is EAPFAST. There are 5 devices connected via WGB bridge to the rest of the network.
- If clients are sending some data , then WGB AP announces this client mac via IAPP to root AP and rest of the network sees them correctly
- If clients are "passive" , then after WBG AP announces them to root AP , they timeout after 6 minutes on root AP and obviously they are not pingable from the rest of the network. The only way to restore connectivity is to ping that device from WGB AP, then WGB AP announces via IAPP to root AP , then and only then they become visible from the rest of the network.
My question is related to this 6 minute timeout on root AP . Is it normal behaviour ?
Laptop Fujitsu with Wifi adapter : Atheros AR9285 , lastest driver v10.0.0.52 April 2012
Win 7 32bit pro WLC 6.0.196.0 and AP 1142 , associated in 802.11G or N WPA 2 preshared key.
WLC Roaming parameter : minimum RRSI -80dbm, roaming hysteresis 2dB, adaptive scan threshold -70dBm, transition time 5sec.
The laptops are supposed to be compatible with CCXv5 program, but in WLC (and two controllers CT-5508) the client is not seen as CCX client compatible !
So roaming is bad. Even with a very good and dense wifi coverage (no coverage hole detected), because the laptop still stay associated with a far AP (until -90dbm), instead of roaming with the nearests APs (-40dbm !!)
I have an hp g62 laptop and it has an Atheros ar9285 wireless adapter and a realtek pci-e ff ethernet adapter. For some reason just recently neither will connect to my netgear cable wifi router. I have two smartphones,xbox and two other laptops that connect with no problem. Everything is configured correctly that i can tell and both drivers have been updated. still nothing, it trys to connect but keeps saying identifying then it says no internet access. also i have disabled firewall and entered the security paraphrase twice just to make sure.

My wireless card - Artheros AR9285, flat out refuses to work.It shows up as 'Not connected' in Network Connections and I've no idea how to get it back working again. Drivers are up to date and anything I've already found by searching hasn't worked.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a HP netbook with an Atheros AR9285 wireless card that will only connect to my router at 75 Mbps. It doesn't matter if its right next to the router or a room away. The router is an E4200 running on mixed mode, auto channel, 2.4 Ghz, but the netbook is usually the only device connected. Or could it be a router configuration (its new)?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using a Cisco ASA 5510. Our tunnels always drop due to inactivity, which is a security issue I understand, and it only takes some "interesting traffic" to bring it back up. My problem is that it looks like the interesting traffic has to originate from my side of the tunnel, when our clients send traffic and the tunnel is down due to inactivity it does not come back up. Is there a setting that I am overlooking that will make it come back up no matter who sends traffic? Or, is there a way to make it stay up through inactivity?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have VPN Gateway to Gateway VPN tunnels set from my central office to four remote sites. The tunnels have always been problematic. Started out with five Linksys RV042 v2 devices these had problems with handshake, sometimes would disconnect during this process and had to click disconnect button on either device and this wouold force the tunnel to rebuild. Recently upgrade central device to a Cisco RV042 v3 device. Good news is that this seems to have corrected the handshake issue but now each of the remote sites are having problems during periods of inactivity losing tunnel. The staff at the remote site indicate that they have to close out application and restart router to rebuild the tunnel.
All tunnels are Gateway to Gateway static IP addresses. They all will connect and behave as expected until they reach a certian period of inactivity. I have searched all over Cisco, Linksys, and Google have seen problems similar but no consistant or logical solutions so I thought since I am slowly upgrading my network from my initial equipment which was truely purchased based on cost alone to adding more Cisco equipment. However since this is among the first of my upgrade moves and the improved equipment is creating more problems than my older less expensive equipment I needed a solution to the problem before submitting additional PO's to upgrade switches and firewall products.
We had an issue the other day where doing backups through the firewall (don't ask) caused the "control" session to timeout while the backups were still going on over the "data" connection. This broke the backup about two hours into the job. My first thought was that the backup solution vendor should implement some kind of tcp keepalive for the control connection. A packet capture showed they indeed were -- after 2 hours! Ah ha! Busted! How could they choose such a poor choice of TCP keepalive timer for their application that would not be compatible with the 60 minute inactivity timer that so many firewall vendors use (Cisco, Juniper, Checkpoint and Fortinet all use a default 60 minute inactivity timer for TCP)?
Well, a colleague of mine pointed out that there is actually an old RFC that covers this. RFC 1122. It says:
Keep-alive packets MUST only be sent when no data or acknowledgement packets have been received for the connection within an interval. This interval MUST be configurable and MUST default to no less than two hours.
Now I know that RFC is old (October 1989), but that's all I could find. Is there something that supercedes that? Maybe common sense perhaps? I understand not wanting to fill up your connection table because of mis-behaving applications, but I'm just looking for ammunition to use against the backup solution vendor. Surely they're going to point to this RFC.

I'm using an HP G60 laptop, running Win 7 Pro x64 SP1, fully patched. I'm usually in the home office, connected to a D-Link DIR-615 router (h/w: E3, f/w: 5.10, the latest). The internal Atheros AR9285 N150 wireless adapter has never been as reliable as I'd like, so decided to purchase a USB N300 adapter. I bought a TP-Link model for $10 and started using it. For some reason, it would only connect at 150, unless I ran the router's Web interface and saved the wireless settings, even without a change, at which point I'd see 300 Mbps. However, at the next restart after hibernation, the connection with the DIR-615 would fall back to 150.
I stepped on the TP-Link USB adapter and broke it. Oops. Decided to purchase a D-Link DWA-131 (h/w: A1, f/w: 1.21, the latest) 'cause it's compact and the box says that, "For Optimal Wireless Performance +Use With Wireless N 300 Router (DIR-615)."Expected 300 Mbps, but it connected at 65. Argh. Did the trick again with the DIR-615's Web interface, and saw 150. But after restart from hibernation, back down to 65. Unable to achieve 300 Mbps, unlike the cheap-o TP-Link adapter. Router is configured according to Lycan's sticky note. Router's Wireless Status shows a signal of 39%, and the router is in the next room in a wood-framed building.Is this as good as it can be? Looks like the DWA-131 is coupla years old with no new drivers for Win 7. Ran the DSL Reports Java speed test, and seeing 18+ Mbps d/l, and 1.8 Mbps u/l, which is about average from Cox here in The OC. If I can't get a faster connection, then D-Link's claim of "optimal performance" is misleading.
This past weekend I went out of town and took my Windows 7 laptop with me -- since I returned home, it has been unable to connect to my wireless network. Other devices in my home connect to the network just fine, and the problem laptop has always been fine until now. My network card is an Atheros AR9285, and I'm attempting to connect to a Medialink router with WPA password protection and AES encryption.My wireless network icon in the task bar has a yellow sign with an exclamation point in it. It says "No Internet access."

When my computer sleeps, the wireless disconnects, and then I have to manually reconnect upon waking. Is there anyway it can remain connected?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am facing a very peculiar problem, i.e. my wireless network connection comes and goes every minute while I chat through gtalk or skype, especially video chat, only text chatting takes a bit longer to get disconnected. Then, I need to reconnect manually or sometimes, it comes back on its own. But my roommates do video-chatting in skype without any issue. 3 of us are sharing the same wireless network. Then, I tried to connect through wired LAN connection, it works fine, hardly gets disconnected. While I watch any streaming video through youtube, netflix etc, it works fine.
